This improvement in corrosion resistance after composites coating could be attributed to the hard and fine structure obtained after coating.展开更多

The changes of morphology, size and distribution of MgZn_(2)precipitate with ageing temperature and time were revealed by optical and electron microscopy. Intergranular corrosion(IGC) and exfoliation corrosion(EXCO) tests were carried out to assess the changes in corrosion susceptibility of the tempered alloy, and some white spots on the surface of the sample aged for longer time were found to be precursors of pits. Electrochemical cyclic polarization test depicted the corrosion behavior under different tempers. Ageing influences on the mechanical behaviors of the alloy were revealed by evaluating its microhardness and tensile strength. The microscopic features of the strengthening phases determined by the ageing procedure directly affect the corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of the alloy.展开更多

Tafel polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy （EIS） were used to investigate the influence of these organic compounds as corrosion inhibitors of mild steel in 1.0 mol/L HC1 solution at 30 ℃. The inhibition mechanism was discussed in terms of Langrnuir isotherm model. Results obtained from Tafel polarization and impedance measurements are in a good agreement. The inhibition efficiency increases with the increase of the inhibitor concentration. The adsorption of the inhibitors on the mild steel surface follows Langmuir adsorption isotherm and the free energy of adsorption AGads indicates that the adsorption of APTT, EDTA, and TU molecules is a spontaneous process and a typical chemisorption.展开更多

The results show that the corrosion resistance of the alloy plate built at platform temperature of 35 ℃ along height direction is basically the same due to a uniform microstructure;While the corrosion resistance of the alloy plate built at platform temperature of 200 ℃ along height direction is different. The evolution of microstructure and the distribution of secondary phases are investigated, and the results show that the Cu-rich phases in alloy play a key role on corrosion performance. At higher platform temperature, the cooling rate is relative slow and a certain degree of in situ ageing leads to the significantly different distribution of Cu-rich phases along grain boundary. Specimens built at the platform temperature of 200 ℃ are inclined to locate at the crossed grain boundary, rather than continuous segregation of Cu-rich phases along grain boundary that is built at platform temperature of 35 ℃. Therefore, the corrosion resistance of Al-3.40Mg-1.08Sc alloy plate manufactured at platform temperature of 200 ℃ is higher, and presents a gradually decreasing trend along height direction.展开更多

The results indicate that with the increase of second-step aging time of two-step aging, the mechanical properties increase first and then decrease, while the SCC resistance increases. Compared with two-step aging, three-step aging treatment improves SCC resistance and the strength increases by about 5%. The effects of novel three-step aging on strength and SCC resistance are explained by the role of matrix precipitates and grain boundary precipitates, respectively.展开更多

The changes of morphology, size and distribution of MgZn_(2)precipitate with ageing temperature and time were revealed by optical and electron microscopy. Intergranular corrosion(IGC) and exfoliation corrosion(EXCO) tests were carried out to assess the changes in corrosion susceptibility of the tempered alloy, and some white spots on the surface of the sample aged for longer time were found to be precursors of pits. Electrochemical cyclic polarization test depicted the corrosion behavior under different tempers. Ageing influences on the mechanical behaviors of the alloy were revealed by evaluating its microhardness and tensile strength. The microscopic features of the strengthening phases determined by the ageing procedure directly affect the corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of the alloy.

文摘The microstructure,mechanical properties and stress corrosion cracking(SCC)of 7136 aluminum alloy under T 6,T 79 and T 74 aging treatments were studied and the effects of microstructure on the mechanical properties and SCC were discussed.The results show that the ultimate tensile strength and yield strength of the aging 7136 alloys follow this sequence from high to low:T 6>T 79>pre-aging>T 74.For 7136 Al alloy after T 6 aging,the average diameter of the precipitates was(5.7±1.7)nm,and the diameter of 60.7%(number fraction)precipitates was 2−6 nm,leading to a good precipitation strengthening.The K_(IC)of T 74-aging alloy is 38.2 MPa·m^(1/2),which is 26.1%more than that of T 6-aging alloy and 17.5%more than that of T 79-aging alloy.The improved fracture toughness in T 74-aging alloy is mainly due to the reduction of the strength difference between intragranular and grain boundary.The SCC resistance of the aging 7136 alloys follows this sequence from high to low:T 79>T 74>T 6.After T 79 aging,the discontinuous grain boundary precipitates and narrow precipitate free zones were obtained in 7136 alloy,which was beneficial to SCC resistance.

文摘In order to improve the hot corrosion resistance of DZ125 alloy,Ce-Y modified aluminum coatings were prepared on DZ125 alloy by pack cementation process at 950°C for 2 h.The microstructure,phase constitution and formation mechanism of the coatings were investigated.The hot corrosion behaviors of DZ125 alloy and the coatings in molten salt environment of 25%K2SO4+75%Na2SO4(mass fraction)at 900°C were studied.Results show that the obtained Al-Ce-Y coatings were mainly composed of Al3Ni2,Al3Ni and Cr7Ni3,with a thickness of about 120μm.After hot corrosion test,DZ125 alloy suffered catastrophic hot corrosion and serious internal oxidation and internal sulfidation arose.Two layers of corrosion products formed on surfaces of DZ125 alloy,including the outer layer consisting of Cr2O3 and NiCr2O4,and the inner layer of Al2O3,Ni3S2 and Ni-base solid solution.After being coated with Al-Ce-Y coating,the hot corrosion resistance of DZ125 alloy is improved notably,due to the formation of a dense scale mainly consisting of Al-rich Al2O3 in the coating layer.

文摘The inhibition ability of 4-amino-5-phenyl-4H-1, 2, 4-trizole-3-thiol （APTT）, ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid （EDTA） and thiourea （TU） for mild steel corrosion in 1.0 moFL HC1 solution at 30 ℃ was investigated. Tafel polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy （EIS） were used to investigate the influence of these organic compounds as corrosion inhibitors of mild steel in 1.0 mol/L HC1 solution at 30 ℃. The inhibition mechanism was discussed in terms of Langrnuir isotherm model. Results obtained from Tafel polarization and impedance measurements are in a good agreement. The inhibition efficiency increases with the increase of the inhibitor concentration. The adsorption of the inhibitors on the mild steel surface follows Langmuir adsorption isotherm and the free energy of adsorption AGads indicates that the adsorption of APTT, EDTA, and TU molecules is a spontaneous process and a typical chemisorption.

文摘Al7075 alloy is a typical aviation aluminum with good mechanical properties and anodic oxidation effect.Laser engineered net shaping technology has unique advantages in the integrated forming of high-performance large aircraft structural parts.The manufacturing of 7075 aluminum alloy structural parts by laser engineered net shaping technology has become an important development direction in the future aerospace field.Electrochemical corrosion resistance of aluminum alloys is of vital importance to improve reliability and life-span of lightweight components.A comparative study on microstructure and anti-corrosion performance of Al7075 alloy prepared by laser additive manufacturing and forging technology was conducted.There are hole defects in LENS-fabricated Al7075 alloy with uniformly distributedηphase.No defects are observed in Al7075 forgings.The large S phase particles and small ellipsoidalηphase particles are found in Al matrix.The corrosion mechanisms were revealed according to the analysis of polarization curves and corrosion morphology.It was found that compared with that prepared by forgings,the additive manufactured samples have lower corrosion tendency and higher corrosion rate.Corrosion occurred preferentially at the hole defects.The incomplete passivation film at the defects leads to the formation of a local cell composed of the internal Al,corrosion solution and the surrounding passive film,which further aggravates the corrosion.

文摘The effects of rare earth ytterbium(Yb)addition and hot extrusion on the microstructure and corrosion behavior of as-cast ADC12 were studied by optical microscopy(OM),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS)and X-ray diffraction(XRD).The experimental results demonstrate that both the Si phase andβ-Al_(5)FeSi phase in the alloy with 0.9 wt%Yb have been remarkably refined,and the Al3Yb intermetallic compound has also been obtained.The Si,β-Al5FeSi,and rare earth phases are further refined in the alloy at 0.9 wt%Yb and hot extrusion.The results of the immersion corrosion tests and electrochemical experiments show that the corrosion current density(8.56μA/cm^(2))of the alloy with 0.9 wt%Yb addition and hot extrusion is 50.6%lower than the untreated alloy(17.33μA/cm^(2)),and the polarization resistance(9252Ω·cm^(2))was 71.3%higher than the untreated alloy(2654Ω·cm^(2)).The corrosion in the cathode phase in the micro-battery was refined to varying degrees attributable to the addition of Yb and hot extrusion,where the cathode reaction in the corrosion process caused a decrease of the corrosion rate.

文摘Microbiologically-induced concrete corrosion(MICC)refers to chemical reactions between biologically produced sulphuric acid and with hydration products in the hardened concrete paste,resulting in an early reduction of strength,deterioration,and very severe circumstances,structural failure.This paper explores the bactericidal characteristics of cementitious materials with surface coated with modified zeolite-polyurethane.The zeolite-polyurethane coating incorporated with silver was studied in environments inoculated with A.thiooxidans bacteria for 8 consecutive weeks.The antibacterial characteristics were evaluated in terms of pH,optical density(OD),sulphate production and bacteria count to determine the effectiveness of the zeolite-polyurethane coatings in environments inoculated with A.thiooxidans bacteria producing the sulphuric acid.The results revealed that the samples incorporated with silver modified zeolites generally showed antibacterial performance(regardless of the zeolite type)compared with unmodified polyurethane coating.This was evaluated by the lack of bacteria attachment and the deformed microcolonies on the sample surface,lag in pH reduction,increase in OD,and sulphate production.The silver zeolites gained their antibacterial performance from the release of silver ions(Ag^(+))when the sample comes into contact with aqueous solutions.This results in the inhibition of cell functions of the bacteria and subsequently causes cell damage.

文摘In order to obtain a high-performance surface on TiAl alloy that can meet the requirements in hot corrosion environment,Si-Al-Y coatings were fabricated by pack cementation process at 1050℃for 4 h.Corrosion behaviors of the TiAl alloy with and without Si-Al-Y coatings are compared to illustrate the factors and corresponding mechanism in molten salt environment of 25 wt%K2SO4 and 75 wt%Na2SO4 at 900°C.The obtained Si-Al-Y coating was mainly composed of a TiSi2 outer layer,a(Ti,X)5Si4 and(Ti,X)5Si3(X represents Nb or Cr element)middle layer,a TiAl2 inner layer and a Al-rich inter-diffusion zone.The inter-phase selective corrosion containing corrosion pits extending alongα2 phase from lamellar interfaces in hot corrosion tested TiAl alloy was observed.However,by being coated with Si-Al-Y coating,the hot corrosion performance of TiAl alloy was improved remarkably.

文摘The Al-3.40Mg-1.08Sc alloy plates were manufactured by selective laser melting(SLM) at platform temperatures of 35 ℃ and 200 ℃, respectively, and the corrosion performance of them was studied along height direction. The results show that the corrosion resistance of the alloy plate built at platform temperature of 35 ℃ along height direction is basically the same due to a uniform microstructure;While the corrosion resistance of the alloy plate built at platform temperature of 200 ℃ along height direction is different. The evolution of microstructure and the distribution of secondary phases are investigated, and the results show that the Cu-rich phases in alloy play a key role on corrosion performance. At higher platform temperature, the cooling rate is relative slow and a certain degree of in situ ageing leads to the significantly different distribution of Cu-rich phases along grain boundary. Specimens built at the platform temperature of 200 ℃ are inclined to locate at the crossed grain boundary, rather than continuous segregation of Cu-rich phases along grain boundary that is built at platform temperature of 35 ℃. Therefore, the corrosion resistance of Al-3.40Mg-1.08Sc alloy plate manufactured at platform temperature of 200 ℃ is higher, and presents a gradually decreasing trend along height direction.

文摘The influence of a novel three-step aging on strength, stress corrosion cracking(SCC) and microstructure of AA7085 was investigated by tensile testing and slow strain rate testing combined with transmission electron microscopy(TEM). The results indicate that with the increase of second-step aging time of two-step aging, the mechanical properties increase first and then decrease, while the SCC resistance increases. Compared with two-step aging, three-step aging treatment improves SCC resistance and the strength increases by about 5%. The effects of novel three-step aging on strength and SCC resistance are explained by the role of matrix precipitates and grain boundary precipitates, respectively.
